About Ffyona

Ffyona Duncan is a counsellor with three years of professional experience in the United Kingdom and registration with NCPS. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, and common challenges like low self-esteem and motivation. She approaches therapy with respect for each person's story and strengths. Seeking help is a brave step and she aims to provide steady support through that process.

Ffyona works from a belief that clients are the experts on their own lives. Sessions tend to be conversational and paced to suit the individual. She listens for patterns in relationships, attachment, and reactions to stress, then helps people notice different options and practice small changes.

Her practice draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships affect current bonds. She also uses client-centred techniques to keep the work focused on what matters to the client. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy tools are used when people want practical ways to shift thinking and behaviour.

Ffyona has helped people dealing with grief, addictions, trauma, intimacy issues and jealousy. She also supports those coping with parenting pressures, career stress, and life transitions. Work can include exploring family of origin issues, codependency, or recovery from domestic violence.

Sessions are offered in English in the United Kingdom. The approach is collaborative and down-to-earth, aiming for steady progress rather than quick fixes. Clients are encouraged to use their strengths and to set goals that feel manageable.

How her approaches shape online therapy

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how earlier relationships shape present-day bonds and emotional responses; it can help people who notice repeating patterns in trust, closeness or jealousy. Client-Centred Therapy puts the client's experience at the heart of the work, offering a non-judgemental space where people can speak freely and be understood. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) gives practical tools for spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviours to reduce anxiety or improve mood.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and how someone responds to different techniques, and then agree a plan together. This collaborative process means methods can be adapted as progress is made or goals shift.

Please confirm current session options before booking, as formats were not specified in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by avoiding travel time or allowing shorter follow-up chats when that suits a schedule. It can also help when quieter surroundings or lower video bandwidth are needed, or when people prefer a conversational check-in rather than a full in-person appointment.
